Why are we allowed to omit a separator after the relative clause poi co'i klama to'o la midju terdi xamsi ends?
Here we don't need to use cu before co'a since after it a new selbri (gacri) follows. Since a bridi can't contain more than one selbri we automatically assume that a bridi just ended so we start a new one.
A preposition (co'a) placed before a selbri modifies that selbri. Thus co'a also belongs to gacri.
